Interview
What is the hardest part of writing
your books?
Writing the
middle is always the most difficult because you want the timing to be just
right.
What songs are most played on your
Ipod?
Murky Moon
Sky by Burn the Treaty, a Nashville-based duo—I used this song for my book
trailer, so I listen to it anytime I need help finding inspiration.
Do you have critique partners or beta
readers?
Yes. I’m
fortunate to have worked in journalism and public relations for years, and I
have some great friends who will give me the absolute truth about what works or
doesn’t. I’ve also made some new friends who are authors and have been willing
to give feedback.
What book are you reading now?
Dreams
of Falling by Karen White
How did you start your writing career?
When I was
13, I started writing a column for my hometown newspaper. I fell in love with
writing, and since then, I’ve worked as a writer in some capacity. The Haunting
on Palm Court is my first novel. I’d always wanted to write a book, but I didn’t
find the inspiration I needed until my husband and I traveled to Isle of Palms,
South Carolina. Our vacation rental had the creepiest backyard, filled with Spanish
moss-covered oaks. It was breathtaking and spooky. I knew I’d finally found the
inspiration for my story.
Tell us about your next release.
I’m working
on the second book in the Isle of Palms Suspense series, Return to Palm Court.
It’s from the point of view of Brittany, Blake’s sister. She goes to help Blake
with the family bed and breakfast and her troubled niece. As more frightening
events begin taking place, Brittany realizes the ghosts of their past may not
have been laid to rest after all.
